Image: A simple blood test - administered before CAR-T cell treatment is initiated - may identify which patients are predisposed to developing neurotoxic side effects after CAR-T cell therapy. Severe side effects can include seizures, brain swelling, and strokes. Evidence of a stroke (red arrows) is seen on this MRI scan of the brain of a patient who developed neurotoxic side effects after CAR-T cell therapy (Photo courtesy of Dr. Omar Butt, Washington University School of Medicine)

Elevated Blood Levels of Neurofilament Light Chain Predict Likelihood of Neurotoxicity Following CAR-T Immunotherapy

An elevated level of neurofilament light chain (NfL) in the blood plasma can identify which patients are likely to develop neurotoxic side effects in the days and weeks following CAR-T cell therapy. More...
